Death of a Dream, by Paul LaRosa & Erin Moriarty

She was a gifted midwestern beauty, the daughter of Ohio State
University's marching band director: to dance on Broadway. Soon after
high school graduation, Catherine left Columbus for New York City,
determined to be a star. Three years later, she was dead -- murdered in
cold blood in her East Side apartment. The shocking revelations that
emerged from the police investigation made tabloid headlines: few knew
that the struggling artist paid her bills by dancing in a topless club.
But there was another hidden facet to Catherine's life -- a shattering
love triangle with two men, one of whom would ultimately be convicted of
her brutal stabbing death. It's a chilling account of obsession,
violence, and the surprising, minute evidence on which the entire case
hinged. For a talented young woman reaching for the top, and the
heartbroken family she left behind, it is truly the death of a dream.
